(54) Moistening apparatus in sizing machine


(57) A moistening apparatus (3) in a sizing machine (1) for squeezing water from warp threads (T) wet with water prior to application of sizing solution to the warp threads (T) has a pair of squeeze rollers (61,62). The squeeze rollers (61,62) hold the warp threads (T) from above and below. The squeeze rollers (61,62) have a water supplying device (51) that supplies water either to a circumferential surface of the roller (61) that is located above the warp threads (T) passing through between the rollers (61,62) or to an upper side of the warp threads (T) located upstream of the rollers (61,62). The water supplying device (51) has water discharge holes (54), each of which is formed like a slit having longer sides extending along the longitudinal direction of the water supplying device (51).
